Mexico
We are Stanley and Irena, a married couple devoted to the path of spiritual healing through sacred medicine. For over 11 years, we’ve been living and working in the lush jungle near Cancún, in the heart of the Yucatán Peninsula. Our lives were transformed by the wisdom of ancestral plant medicines such as Ayahuasca, Kambo, Bufo Alvarius, and others.
Through years of personal healing, study, and deep respect for nature and indigenous traditions, we were called to open a safe, intimate, and heart-centered space where others can experience their own transformation.
We are not a hospital. We are a sacred refuge. A place for those who are ready to return home to themselves, to remember who they truly are, and to reconnect with the voice of their soul.
Our retreats are designed for people from Western cultures seeking deep healing, emotional release, and a meaningful pause from modern life. Each retreat includes:
2–3 Ayahuasca ceremonies
Kambo, Bufo Alvarius, Sananga, and Rapé rituals
Kundalini Yoga, meditation, and breathwork
Temazcal (sweat lodge), nature trips to cenotes and the Caribbean Sea
Vegan/vegetarian healing meals
We work in small groups (usually 4–6 people) to ensure personal attention and a safe, nurturing environment.
Our mission is not to make you dependent on retreats, but to help you reconnect with your own power so you can walk your path with clarity, love, and strength.
We welcome you with open hearts.
Come heal. Come remember. Come home.

received all the healing I have been desperately seeking all my life. A life of trauma,
healed with one visit to this retreat, what a gift! Held in such a loving way by Stanley
and Irena, the two energies provided a perfect balance to safe space. I arrived broken,
hurt, full of guilt, with a closed heart, and fear for the future. With Stanley as my guide
and facilitator, my heart completely burst open and melted, and my mind was blown.
My subconscious was operated on by sacred medicines, my heart was healed, and I
was forgiven. There are no words to describe what I was shown on the other side, and
the immense amount of love for humanity, self, Pachamama, and God that I get to take
with me and share with those around me. I have a profound respect for sacred
medicines. They are live energies that allow us permission to see and feel
unimaginable things.
Irena, and the power of the sacred medicines created a perfect container for deep
healing. The small group size allowed for personalized attention and a powerful, shared
journey. I am eternally grateful for the safe space they held, guiding us through the

words—releasing what no longer served me and reconnecting me with love and spirit.
Thank you for helping me see, feel, and remember.
This spiritual retreat in Mexico marked a before and after in my life. I arrived with doubts, questions, and a heart searching for answers… and I found so much more than I ever imagined. The care was so human, so loving, and so personalized that I felt supported every step of the way.
Irena and Stan are beings of indescribable light. For me, they were a direct bridge to God, to the deepest truth of my soul. I am profoundly grateful to them for holding me, guiding me, and opening the door to a path of healing I never imagined I would walk.
I wholeheartedly recommend this retreat. Have complete trust: they will offer the exact medicine each person needs, because their work comes from love and the purest intuition. Go with faith, with trust, and with a truly open heart… what you experience there can transform your life forever.
I hope life brings our paths together again. Thank you. 💫🪽🤍
I was starting a new chapter after the end of a 10-year relationship. I needed to discover myself and learn to love myself. I really appreciated the variety of medicines and ceremonies offered at this retreat. The atmosphere looked peaceful, and the length of the program was just right to fit with my busy work schedule. After the first night, I felt an incredible surge of confidence and was filled with gratitude. As the retreat went on, I began healing parts of myself I hadn’t even realized needed attention. The food was deeply nourishing, and sharing the experience with the other attendees made it all the more meaningful. The facilitators, Stanley and Ireana, were incredibly welcoming and supportive. The trust we built with them is a big reason I’d love to return to this retreat.
Various behaviors and avoidances that were no longer serving me but I had not found an effective way to address and resolve them. I chose this retreat as the program, teachers, locale, and price provided the greatest and best value in my opinion. I was pleasantly surprised to find that this retreat provided all the value above and beyond my expectations. The fact that I was alone in this retreat provided VIP service and tailoring of the content to my specific needs as the retreat progressed. After a week at the retreat in the jungle, with yoga, meditation, healthy, plant-based food, quiet, and a vibrant natural setting, I was able to find answers to some fundamental questions, and left with tools to help me continue integrating the experiences from the retreat into my life. Stan and Irena are wonderful people as well as guides and teachers and the retreat and my experiences from it benefitted from their living the things they teach. The Temazcal ceremony with Erica was also transformational.
Stanley and Irena are top-notch facilitators for the spiritual retreat of a lifetime. Honoring the sacred plant medicines and all the facets of my being, I was led thru beautiful ceremonies, carefully curated and executed by Stanley, an intense and immersive healing for my tattered soul. The beauty of the hours long ayahuasca ceremony with all the care given to my physical and spiritual needs during and after was top notch, and I absolutely will repeat in the future. The sweat lodge was cleansing for body and soul. There was a third ceremony which I forget the name of the sacred plant medicine used, but during which I experienced an entire realignment of my spirit/soul/self and the universe. Words cannot express the joy I feel as this was exactly what I’ve been searching for in an effort to cast away my negative vibrations and be more centered and balanced. The trip to the cenote was beautiful and relaxing. The jungle property where we stayed was shaded with many trees, birds, and plants. I found the buildings, restrooms and etc to be rustic as in a camping trip but everything in working order and very clean. There was plenty of time for my husband and I to relax between ceremonies (he attended and partook of all as well, and he has not stopped raving about what an excellent ceremonial guide Stanley is). Irena cooked us healthy and light meals daily, serving fruits as well, and there was plenty of drinking water available at all times. I believe we received two meals daily during ceremony days and three meals daily on rest days in accordance with the needs of the sacred plant medicines and how they work in our bodies (so don’t bring snacks and cheat). The combination of Stanley’s excellent Spanish and Irena’s excellent English and Spanish ensured we received all instructions to our complete understanding. We were well cared for and will return when the calling for furthering our healing journey arises. I am recommending this to anyone in need of a good healing and cleansing experience. I trust Stanley and Irena to care for my friends with respect and love.
A Profound and Life-altering Experience
A profound and life-altering experience. That’s the only way to describe my retreat in Mexico. I came to the DMT retreat feeling drained, disconnected, and battling both mental and physical exhaustion. I had heard about the potential for deep healing, but I was not prepared for the transformation that awaited me.
The facilitators were exceptional – professional, compassionate, and incredibly knowledgeable. They created a safe and supportive environment that allowed me to fully surrender to the process. The ceremonies were led with reverence and a deep understanding of the plant medicine.
The DMT sessions themselves were indescribably powerful. The breakthroughs I experienced were nothing short of miraculous. Not only did I gain a profound new perspective on my life, releasing old traumas and negative thought patterns, but I also felt a tangible physical shift. The chronic fatigue and body aches I had been struggling with for years simply melted away.
My deepest gratitude goes out to the entire team for guiding me through this journey. This wasn’t just a retreat; it was a rebirth. My life has been forever changed, both mentally and physically, and I am filled with a sense of peace and vitality I haven’t felt in a very long time.
I had felt the call of Ayahuasca for a long time, and I chose this retreat for its peaceful setting and supportive energy. I’m so grateful I did. The ceremonies helped me a lot in my personal life – I had been feeling lost for a long time, unsure of where I was going. Ayahuasca showed me a clearer path, and brought me back to myself. Irena and Standa were incredibly kind, supportive, and helpful throughout the entire process. They explained everything with care, held space with love, and made me feel safe and seen. The food was delicious and perfectly aligned with the process. I also really appreciated how the retreat is designed – it allows you to truly slow down and disconnect from everyday noise. Their place in the jungle is magical, peaceful, and has a truly special energy. The yoga and meditation complemented the ceremonies beautifully, and added even more depth to the experience. I feel that this retreat not only met my expectations – it went far beyond them. As I return home, I feel inspired to eat better, live more consciously, and stay committed to my inner work Thank you so much – you were amazing and this journey will stay in my heart forever. I attended the 5-day retreat and it was truly a deep and transformative experience.
It was the most incredible, life-transforming 6 days. Irena and Stan are the most amazing souls, and from day one, I was made to feel at home at the retreat. Words can’t describe how special the ceremonies were. I feel so grateful to have experienced them. Every aspect of the retreat, including the food, surroundings, yoga, and energy, was perfect. I would recommend it to everyone in a heartbeat. If you have a calling for an ayahuasca retreat, this one will be magical. Thank you Irena and Stan ❤️
The Retreat that changed Everything
After 30 years in a high-pressure career, raising three children, and constantly striving to be the best mother, wife, and executive I could be—menopause brought me to my knees. I was doing everything “right”: yoga, meditation, clean eating, exercise, even gave up alcohol. But nothing touched the deeper pain—the anger, the guilt, the overwhelming sense that I was losing my worth and my sense of self.
I came to this retreat searching for tools—yoga, meditation, nourishing food, and plant medicine. What I found was so much more. The true magic lies in the couple who created this space, Stan and Irena. They are deeply gifted healers—authentic, loving, and intuitive—and their energy is felt in every detail of the experience. You don’t just attend this retreat; you’re held by it.
On the second day, I released years of emotion in what felt like a powerful, necessary explosion. That clearing made room for something sacred: deep soul work, reconnection with my purpose, and the return of my personal power. It felt like being reborn.
My husband joined me on this journey, and one of the most unexpected and beautiful outcomes was how we reconnected with each other—on a level we hadn’t reached in 25 years of marriage. Our bond is stronger than ever.
I came for plant medicine and ended up doing Kambo, Bufo, and Ayahuasca—each one calling to me in its own way. Bufo cracked me open emotionally, while Ayahuasca grounded me, empowered me, and filled me with love. Together, the medicine—and the sacred guidance of Stan and Irena—brought me home to myself.
Today, I feel clear, grounded, and more in love—with myself, with life, and with the people around me—than I’ve ever felt before.
Thank you, Stan & Irena!

Finding the right words to accurately express my appreciation and gratitude after participating in events organized by Healing – Ceremonies – Mexico is challenging. Like many, I arrived in search of answers and solutions to various issues I have been facing. Despite my naturally skeptical attitude, I feel that I was able to achieve and find what I was looking for.
I am extremely satisfied with the value and quality of the services I received. Stan and his team took exceptional care of me at every step, ensuring I had everything I needed and offering valuable advice. They thoroughly explained everything and answered all my questions. I particularly enjoyed the friendly and comfortable atmosphere they created, which allowed me to effectively address my preconceived notions and, most importantly, the fears I had prior to participating in the ceremonies. I feel confident stating that my initial fears were unfounded.
I have no doubt that I am leaving Mexico as a much happier, healthier, and overall better person than I was before this remarkable experience. Thank you once more! I look forward to returning as soon as possible to continue this truly empowering personal journey.
Ayahuasca is an incredibly beautiful experience. You don’t know what you will experience, but in any case it will be beneficial and healing. I got rid of fear and sadness, settled deep in the body. We get rid of emotions deep in the body by vomiting. Vomiting is thus a healing component of Ayahuasca. I healed my sacral chakra and throat chakra, among other things. But she also experienced feelings of immense sadness and joy. The main thing is to trust Ayahuasca, not to resist experiences and to open your heart. In the most difficult moments, he remembers something nice, gratitude and love
Muy sanador, Gracias Gracias Gracia por Ello
The experience with Ayahuasca changed my life. For about 15 years I have been reading books about personal development, ascension through the levels of consciousness, etc. however I have only seen slow changes in my life. That changed after a healing stay in Mexico with Irena and Standa, after which everything in my life began to change very quickly and intensively. Everything I had read over the years, I finally experienced and understood with my heart at the ceremony. The advantage of this stay was that Irena and Standa talked to us about our experiences and helped us understand our ayahuasca experience so that the experience moved us as much as possible. They really took care of us in every way, not just accommodation and healthy food
Standa and Irena were simply wonderful guides throughout our 10-day stay in Cancun on the Yucatan Peninsula. The program they put together for our 5-member group met our modest expectations. And it wasn’t just any stay. Rather, I would call it a healing procedure with a dose of mysticism, combined with vacation fashion in places that the average tourist just can’t get to. The stand with Irena will perfectly prepare you for meeting the magical Aya and dissolve your fears before the first meeting with this magical procedure! If you are attracted to Ahayu, call, definitely contact these two great beings, energetic Standa and gentle Irena, who will take care of your physical and mental preparation for the Ahayu ceremony in the middle of the Mexican jungle. Both of you will then be reborn into a new world, which you will discover in yourself thanks to this magical plant! With Irena and Standa, you will experience a touch of mystery, discover an unknown emotion and, above all, fully open your heart, which will then guide you through the rest of your life. Definitely worth it! David Cech certified Pychology Of Mind coach, specialist in nutrition and prevention Cancún, 02 2023
I am very grateful that I could experience the ceremony with you, where I deepened my knowledge of myself and could understand the dark sides of my personality. I went through a healing process and caressing my soul. Ayahuasca -> A gift from God. Thank you. Michaela T. Czechia
I always thought I knew myself perfectly. That I don’t need to look inside myself. I’ve always told myself, that’s just the way I am. But ayahuasca showed me how to love myself and trust my instincts. I looked into my soul and felt gratitude and joy that my soul has a body that is alive. I saw how beautiful the universe is and what an incredibly beautiful infinity we live in. I went through forgiveness and realization. And I believe it was not my last ceremony. Thank you. Richard T.
